Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Lieh-tzu: Damn.  @Zhukov what say you? Harsh but fair. It truly encapsulates the absolute terror Germany displays when it comes to accepting the fact that sometimes you have to engage in war. If you think to the anger displayed by Germany (among ordinary Germans) when the US got involved in the Middle East, you'll find that it stems from the same source. They think that everything can be negotiated and people who don't are cowboys and/or savages. There was a brief moment in time when the Russian invasion started that looked to jolt Germany into more substantial action, but Ukrainian resistance has allowed them to go back to a collective sleep. Nobody worries about Russia anymore, so why deal with icky ammunition? The wailing and gnashing of teeth if Russia starts moving aggressively West will be interesting to watch. Oh - about telephone call: Yeah, that whole thing bugged me too. They weren't discussing a ton of secrets, but the whole thing was just so... congenial and off-the-cuff. Guy calling in from Singapore on his cell phone while on vacation? Nuts... |

Nuland handed out cookies during Maidan square protests. She was instrumental in getting the mind control drugs inot the citizens so they could vote for the referendum to become an eu trading partner. She was solely responsible for poroshenko's decision to ignore the referendum, and sign a deal with russia. Then she hypnotized the Ukrainian population and forced them to throw out poroshenko. She is a master strategist much like darth putin. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By lorazepam: They are effective enough to sink the ship. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By lorazepam: Originally Posted By Capta: The Ukrainians also don’t generally put the attacks in chronological order in their video releases. I think the chronologically first attacks are always the “up the stern” attacks. They say this is to help immobilize the ship (through prop damage and/or popping the shaft seals) to make later hits easier. I’m skeptical of this and tend to think they attack in a set order, and the first wave operators just aren’t leading ship’s course enough, so they invariably get pulled into a “pursuit curve” attack that finishes going right up the wake. Yes, that might cripple the ship, at which point the remaining operators have an easier time leading the ship and hitting broadside. But I tend to think that overall it’s a sub-optimal outcome. The 3rd person view also (IMO) confirms they have fuse/detonation issues and that a better warhead/fuse design could make the system more effective. They are effective enough to sink the ship. Yeah but they’ve also hit several ships they didn’t sink or even damage too badly. Sergey Kotov was one of them. |

Their radar systems also are not optimized for working over water.
The #Russians planned to deploy an air defense system on the ship "Sergey Kotov" - #GUR There had already been successful attacks on the ship, but it was restored. This time “Sergei Kotov” was definitely destroyed, said Andrei Yusov, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense. https://t.me/Pravda_Gerashchenko/88763 💬 “The enemy had plans for him. In addition to the patrol boat itself, there were also plans to place anti-aircraft missile systems on the ship itself, and there have already been such attempts. There are dead and wounded. Part of the crew was able to evacuate, so the exact information is being clarified,” Yusov said. The cost of such a vessel is more than $60 million. “Sergey Kotov”, together with the cruiser “Moskva”, took part in the attack on Zmeiny Island. You’re looking at the fantail hits there, and the 22160s have an open deck below the landing platform as you can see here. Notably, there isn’t any video footage from late-attacking drones that shows obvious damage to the ship’s hull, like a big hole

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By easttxshooter: Would something like a Javelin be effective on these sea drones? Or a drone dropped bomb/kamikaze? Seems like their detecting them sometimes, but machinegunning them. Do the Russians have javelins? Using a drone drop or kamikaze depends on having multiple drones/kamikazes up at essentially all hours, with thermal cameras, especially at night, and in a marine environment. Practically speaking, that isn’t going to happen. A report allegedly from inside the Russian navy regarding the firing of the possibly dead Admiral Sokolov said they didn’t allow non-standard weapons on board, didn’t try to procure thermal/NV, and didn’t allow non-issue jammers. Hard to say how true that is. Most likely we’re looking at systemic incompetence and lack of initiative, a lack of proper staff work to assess the risks honestly and devise a plan to mitigate them, and possibly political pressure to carry on regardless. They should’ve had ten PKMs strapped to the rails, with preferably crew NV, or white lights if NV couldn’t be sourced. There’s no way this attack should’ve worked at this point. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Prime: Medvedev: In the case of the so-called Ukraine, or, more precisely, Little Russia, all our opponents need to firmly and forever understand a simple truth: the territories on both banks of the Dnieper are an integral part of Russia’s strategic historical borders. Therefore, all attempts to forcibly change them, to cut them off alive, are doomed. But our enemies constantly insist that Russia’s main goal is to seize Ukrainian lands. I have just said what is different about the conflict around the so-called Ukraine. And two more comments. We are not trying to get our hands on the countless treasures of Square - wheat, steel, gas, coal. In fact, it turns out that these riches are now, unfortunately, almost absent. But in general, in the current Bandera-era Ukraine, unfortunately, there is nothing special in terms of the economy that Russia, unlike, by the way, Western countries, does not possess itself, and in much larger quantities. They must understand this. In Ukraine, our main wealth is of a completely different kind. The great value that we will not give up to anyone for anything is people. People are close to us and, in fact, family. https://t.me/dimsmirnov175/65842 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GH1Ta8XXoAA2K8X?format=jpg&name=large Medvedev and the map of Europe from a geography textbook in 2025. https://t.me/dimsmirnov175/65843 Medvedev: One of the former leaders of Ukraine once said that Ukraine is not Russia. This concept must disappear forever. Ukraine is definitely Russia. https://t.me/dimsmirnov175/65845 Video link:
Medvedev casually hinted at what was already clear: the published recording of the conversation between the German generals is only one of many available. And the rest are much more interesting. And they published it precisely as a polite warning. So that the Germans do not run so energetically after the Washington boss. https://t.me/dimsmirnov175/65851 Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Prime: Originally Posted By Jaehaerys: Those strike me as being minimalist goals, more than anything. They do 100% want Kyiv, as they view it as being a primordial Russian city, intrinsically linked to Russian civilization. Essentially, the only Ukrainian territory that Russian nationalists haven't laid claim to has been Galicia, which is viewed as being a center of Russophobia, fascism, Banderites, etc. Some Russian nationalists will even argue that Transcarpathia shouldn't belong to Ukraine, on the basis that 'Carpatho-Russians' inhabit that region.

I hope he shares the horrible fate of his Sith Lord pootin |
